4mm = large beetle?

Hallo, I've just

stub-sorted Rhinolaemus and was surprised to see it described as "a large (4mm) ... beetle". I'm not a coleopterist but as a layperson I thought most beetles were bigger than that - is it a typo for "40mm" or "4cm", or have I got it wrong? PamD 17:39, 11 February 2014 (UTC)[reply

Everything is relative. 4mm is quite large for a laemophloeid where the average size is probably less than 2mm and the largest known species is only 5mm. Mct5548 (talk) 19:10, 11 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
